In this forum there's a sticky called "Everything you need to know about the Z32", you should read the whole thing (its not that long). It goes over exactly what you want to know.

In short though, if you have stock fuel injectors (which you probably do) they are probably the source of your misfire and fuel smell. Another common problem is corrosion on the electrical connectors inside the engine bay. If you pull off a connector and the pins have green stuff on them, that's corrosion.

But really you should read that whole sticky.

And welcome to NICO! good luck with your Z
